Report Cards are Coming - January 30

On January 30, your child’s report card will be available to view in your MyCBE account. The report card is one of the ways teachers communicate how your child is progressing in their learning. Teachers may also share learning progress through parent/teacher conferences, your child’s daily work and assignments, and other ongoing communication with you.


What to Expect in Your Child’s Report Card 

CBE began implementing the new Alberta Education Curriculum - Kindergarten to Grade 6. The changes that affect William D. Pratt School students are: 


Fall, 2022 start

  • Physical Education and Wellness (K-6)


Fall, 2023 Start

  • Mathematics (4-6)
  • English Language Arts & Literature (4-6)

 

In the new curriculum, some things students learn may be new or may have previously been taught in higher grades. Students could be missing foundational pieces from previous grades, and their report card indicators might not be as high as before. This is expected when there is a new curriculum. It might take more than one school year to build these foundational skills. Even though each grade has its own curriculum, many ideas come up again each year, helping students to build on what they already know and do well.


Teachers continue to make learning interesting and inspiring and are adapting to students' needs during this transition. As always, if you have questions about your child's learning, please reach out to their teachers.
